Specification of Letters Patent.

ratented. May 29, 1906.

Appli filed September 23, 1904. Serial No. 225,663.

To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that 1, WILLIAM C. CORYELL,

a citizen of the United States, residing at. Youngstown, in the county of Mahoning and which are formed upon a tape.

The object of the invention is to produce a mechanism which will explode the caps while forward movement is imparted to the device.

Another object of the invention is to improve the construction of a toy which maybe actuated by manually propelling the same over a surface or by retaining the same in a stationary position and rotating one of its 'members, thereby imparting movement to the entire mechanism.

A still further object of the invention is to construct a simple but efficient toywhich can be constructed at a minimum expense.

With these and other objects in view the invention consists in certain other novel constructions, combinations, and arrangements of the parts, as will be hereinafter more fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings, and more particularly pointed out in the claims hereto appended.

In the drawings, Figure 1 is a view in side elevation showing part of the mechanism in section. Fig. 2 is a sectional view taken on the line A B of Fig. 1, and Fig. 3 is an inverted plan view of the structure illustrated in Fig. 1.

Referring to the drawings, f designates the casing of the device, within which is journaled roller g, which normally engages a roller 1". The roller 7' is keyed upon a transverse shaft (1, which is journaled in opposite sides of the frame or casing f. The rollers g and r are in frictional contact and are positioned in a compartment formed in the casing. A toothed wheel t is also keyed upon the shaft d within another compartment formed in the casing f. The wheel 23 is preferably provided with four teeth, which are adapted to impart a reciprocatory movement to a spring member or hammer s, which is positively secured by rivets is or the like to the bottom of the frame or casing f. The

' between the rollers g and r.

spring-hammer s is provided with a fiat end portion 8, which is adapted to strike against the anvil j for the purpose of exploding the caps which are formed upon the tape 6 as said tape is fed in the direction of the arrow 2 The teeth of the wheel t engage a projection s of spring or hammer s, as is clearly shown in Fig. 3. For the purpose of imparting rotary movement to shaft (1 a comparatively large wheel w is geared thereto near one end thereof, althou h it will be obvious that other means coul be employed for rotating the shaft (55. The wheel to is adapted to be propelled over a surface by means of the operator grasping the handle h, which is positioned within one end of the casing f, and manually moving the entire mechanism forward. As the wheel w rotates it will impart rotary movement to the shaft (1 and subsequently to rollers q and 1" and toothed wheel t, conse uently feeding the tape 6, which is adapte to be wound around pin 19 within magazine 12, between the frictional rollers g and r and anvil j and portion 8 of the reciprocatory spring-hammer 8. At each complete revolution of the toothed wheel t spring-hammer s will be caused to strike the anvil four times, and if the tape which is provided with the caps is in proper position there will have been four explosions upon the completion of each revolution of wheel 25.

The tape 6 or the like is fed between rollers g and r, and the edges of said tape are adapted to pass through the recess portions g g of casing f. The recess portions 9 g converge throughout their entire length, thereby producing a comparatively wide portion farthest from the anvil, so that the tape is positively fed between the rollers q and r and subsequently between the anvil j and the outer end portion of the vibrating hammer or spring member s.

Upon referring to Fig. 2 it will be seen that a portion of the casing extends downwardly in the central part thereof, and upon said extension one of recessedportions g is formed. Furthermore, the central extension. of the casing fills the intervening space between the roller 1" and the toothed wheel 25. The roller q is journaled in one side of the casing and the central extension thereof.

It will be seen that I have produced a mechanism that is simple in construction and efficient in operation, thereby insuring the employment of the same without liability IIO of injury to.the user. The construction of the handle h is entirely optional with the manufacturer, although it is preferable to employ an ordinary straight member.

While I have described in the foregoing description and illustrated in the accompanying drawings the preferred construction of my invention, it will be obvious to others versed in the art to which this invention relates that certain alterations, modifications, and changes may be made in the construction of devices in accordance with this invention, and I therefore reserve the right to make such alterations, modifications, and changes as shall fairly fall Within the spirit and scope of the present invention.
